The 7 best snacks to help you power-up on the golf course - Golf.com

Fueling your body on the golf course is essential to playing your best golf. In order to perform your best, you will want to eat something every 2-3 holes and drink a lot of water. The ultimate goal is to keep your blood sugar as even-keeled as possible by continuing to eat and drink throughout your round. The spikes and drops that come with sugar are what can cause mood, energy, and scoring issues. Here are some of my favorite ways to fuel on the course:

1. Vegan Bars

Vegan bars are easier than ever to find these days. They are the best ones to pick because they tend to have the least amount of bad ingredients in them. These types of bars are simply made from real food with no dairy, soy, or loads of sugar.

My favorites: GoMacro Bars, Beachbars, RXBAR.

2. Protein Balls or muffins

The season favors the prepared as they say, so make your food at home if possible! Homemade protein balls or muffins are one of my favorite things to bring to the course. You know exactly what is in them and feel good about what you are putting into your body. Here are two of my favorite recipes.

3. Shakeology

Having a shake towards the beginning of your round can be beneficial in keeping your energy even throughout your play. Shakeology is my go-to for this. They have plant based options as well as whey options and pack the highest amounts of superfoods into one little shake. They also don’t have that chalky taste/texture that many shakes have. You can make a shake before heading to the course or throw a pack in your bag to have mid-round.
